ID aftercomm.aftercomm
Company's website https://aftercomm.com
App's Terms of Use https://aftercomm.com/terms
Core functionality of the app Aftercomm uses AI to review the email a company sends from Microsoft 365. With read-only Microsoft Graph access, it reads the Sent Items of the mailboxes the customer chooses, and an AI model judges each message against the customer’s own written policy. When one could become fraud, a data leak or a lawsuit, the customer’s reviewers are alerted within minutes, with the reason. It never stores message bodies or attachments, and never sends, changes, blocks or deletes mail.
